One item that has been discussed much is the implementation of a high
quality resampler for the Rockbox DSP. While the linear interpolation
algorithm is fast and perhaps nescessary to use in certain circumstances for
certain CPU-hungry codecs such as the SPC emulator, most find it less than
satisfactory in general for reasons I have no doubt you understand.

Rockbox needs a better resampler than that is both frugal on CPU cycles
(this can depend on the target's processing power) and qualifies as
high-quality output.

Your qualifications and interests indicate you would be a good candidate for
this project. It would be great if you would consider it as a possibility.

I'm an electrical engineer student in my 4th year from Hungary (BUTE),
studying mainly about embedded system design, digital signal processing, and
of course the programming tools in connection with these fields. I've heard
about the "Google Summer Of Code", and the projects Rockbox offers caught my
attention. As my main specialization is digital signal processing, I'm
mostly interested in tasks covering this field. I like the

Realaudio Support
DSP Plugins
Better Video Support

tasks at first sight, but before I send my application I would like to know
if my qualification is sufficient for the various tasks. Of course I'm open
to some embedded work as well, but what I really like is the DSP... :)

- DSP knowledge: mathematical fundamentals, filter design, real time signal
processing on hardware (in this semester my "Labor work" is about fixed
point multi rate filters (for radars), last semester with one of my college
we created a "Larsen effect" cancelling system on an Analog Devices Blackfin
eval board, and it actually worked... :) )
